Totally depends on what you're wanting to do mate.
You'll need to find out whether or not its got standard static compression before you go making up your mind with a cam.

Im building a VK brock replica and i was going to get a 308 in it but due to the new P plate laws i have to keep with the old 202, so im working it. So far i have done pacemaker extractors 2.25" and sports exhaust system, Redline torquer 2 intake manifold with a 450 holley carby set up, redone valve springs, new belt kit, new mild cam, timing gears and roller rockers all up it has set me back around $1500 (doing most of the work my self with mates help) and now shes running like a dream. With those extractors it sounds like a 308 any way.

shave the head get the comp up around 9.8-1 or even 10-1, give the ports a good scratch up, good size cam, atleast 220 @50, port matched manifolds', torker manifold, good extractors and exhaust, 500 2barrel holley, (but get it tuned properly) and you would be up around if not just over the 200hp mark,
